![]() FIRST WEDNESDAY AM NIGHT !!! Sponsored by the Collins Collectors Association. Cedar Rapids, Iowa (QRZ) - Wednesday Oct.1 on 3880 kcs at 8PM local time marks the start of the latest chapter of First Wednesday AM Night, drawing hundreds of vintage stations from across the country. The event is anchored by a "tall ship" AM station in each time zone, who runs the gathering for an hour, starting at 8PM in each time zone and starting on the East Coast. Stations check-in using Collins and other transmitters with AM capabilities, new and old. The idea is to revel in this nostalgic mode, enjoy giving vintage equipment a "run," and sharing some storytelling about classic vacuum tube homebrew and commercial designs. In months past, anchor stations have included those running the beautiful Collins 300-G, pictured below, as well as those running the amateur KW-1 and other noted models. http://www.amwindow.org/pix/jpg/300g.jpg LISTEN for these anchors and stop by to say hello, won't you? You don't have to be running Collins or vintage gear to be welcomed into the group. 8P-9P East Coast Anchor: Joe N3IBX (Washington Crossing PA) 8P-9P Midwest Anchor: Tony W9JXN (Illinois) 8P-9P Rocky Mountain Anchor: Jack, K0HEH (Colorado) 8P-9P West Coast Anchor: Bill, N6PY (California) comments please to |

And don't forget the weekly West Coast A.M.I. Net, 9 p.m., on 3.870 Mhz. What a
rich tonal mix from those various modded transmitters. |
